听力原文: Having lived in New York for several years, Alan Johnson decided to say good-bye

to the city. He does so not because it is dirty; there are cities far dirtier than New York. Not because it is jammed; there are cities far more crowded. Not because it is displeasing, there are cities far more unpleasant. As long as there is something you are fond of there, you will like it. If Vienna is known for its excessive care for its inhabitants, Paris for its pride in what it has fulfilled, then New York is known for its disregard of whatever may happen to its inhabitants. "Indifference" is the word for New York's character. As might be expected in most metropolises, crime rate is high in New York--mugging, robbery, murder and rape are occurring every minute of the hour. What Alan cannot understand is the madness and meanness in addition to the offence--killing someone he didn't know just because he felt like doing so for the moment; robbing elderly people in their wheelchairs because they couldn't resist; and stealing coins from the tray of the blind news dealer because he couldn't see. Alan Johnson, instead of taking everything as unavoidable, wishes the New Yorkers had the courage to say "no" to the ugly aspect of the city.

Alan Johnson decided to leave New York because it is ______.

A.dirty

B.crowded

C.indifferent

D.unpleasant

听力原文:when I first went to London as a student,I sat alone during parties with my glass

听力原文: when I first went to London as a student,I sat alone during parties with my glass of wine.I hoped people would think that I was having great thoughts and that someone might come up to me and say"Excuse me,I hope you won't mind my coming up to you like this.I don't want to interrupt your thoughts.But really, you are the only interesting looking person in the room.May I talk to you?"It never happened.Here is some advice if you would like to be a good conversationalist.Be an attentive listener.Encourage others to talk about themselves.To be interesting,be interested.Ask questions that other people will enjoy answering.Encourage them to talk about themselves and what they have done.Remember that the people you are talking to are a hundred times more interested in themselves and their problems than they are in you and your problems.A person's toothache means more to that person than a famine in Africa which kills a million people.A pain in one's arm interests one more than forty earthquakes in America.Think of that the next time you start a conversation.Diogenes,the Greek philosopher who is supposed to have lived in a barrel,said: "The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is that we may listen more and talk less."

What did the speaker usually do during parties?

A.Enjoyed the wine and delicious foods.

B.Listened to the stories of friends.

C.Sat alone and waited someone to come up.

D.Talked to the interesting looking people.

听力原文:Andrew Jackson, who was President of the United States from 1829 to 1837, was one

听力原文: Andrew Jackson, who was President of the United States from 1829 to 1837, was one of the most colorful political figures in American history. He first won national attention during the War of 1812 when, as commander of 5,000 backwoods farmers and soldiers, he completely defeated a well-trained British army of 10,000 men at the famous Battle of New Orleans.

There are many anecdotes about Jackson. Among them there is this humorous one:

After his wife died, Jackson lived alone and felt very lonely. He also began to worry greatly about his health. Several members of his family had died after suffering paralytic strokes, and Jackson was sure that he was going to die in the same way. He therefore lived in constant fear of having such a stroke.

One day at the home of some friends, he was playing chess with a young girl. Suddenly Jackson's hand dropped to his side and he seemed to become very weak. His face became pale. Several friends rushed to his side.

"At last it has come," said Jackson weakly. "I have had a stroke. My whole right side is paralyzed."

"How do you know?" someone asked.

"Because," Jackson answered, "in the past few minutes I have pinched my right leg several times, and there is absolutely no sensation in it."

"Oh! I beg your pardon, sir," said the young woman with whom he had been playing, "But that was my leg you were pinching."

(31)

A.He was the commander of the American Army during the War of 1812.

B.He was President of the United States.

C.He was one of the most colorful political figures.

听力原文:I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can reme

听力原文: I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother's words as if it were yesterday: "Carol, I don't want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him."

AIDS wasn't something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father's other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.

We couldn't afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn't even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher's words were drowned as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.

I did not share my burden with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.

I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless. I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.

I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn't want to call attention to AIDS. I do.

(30)

A.He told no one about his disease.

B.He worked hard to pay for his medication.

C.He depended on the nurses in his final days.

D.He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.
